Bug Description
Up to version 1.0.1, the image store proxy cannot handle compressed images, which means Canonical would have to provide 10GB files uncompressed somewhere, rather than the much smaller 700MB versions. Version 1.0.2 is able to handle gzip compressed images.
It's important to integrate this change in time for Karmic, otherwise even if we implement support for compressed images in Lucid, we'd still have to provide the uncompressed images for Karmic-based deployments to work.
The change has been properly unittested, and manually tested as well with a real installation of a compressed image and of an uncompressed image to ensure it continues working correctly.
